God gave me this song last night

I was moved to tears today when Moses send me the link of this song.

This past weeks had been difficult with pain. I had a wonderful sharing on Saturday evening after taking pain killer. I was like before, high energy and able to talk without difficult in breathing. However, when I got home, I crashed. That night was so painful. The next few days, the pain intensified so much that I need to take double dosage of Advil. The nights are the challenging ones, since I will not be able to sleep more than 2 hours, so it had became increasingly tired during the day.

Last night, after taking pain killer and still cannot sleep, I started to tell God that I would rather go to see Him earlier than going through this kind of pain, and yet, on the other hand, I was reminded of this pain experience that many others are going through. Since I had always been healthy and did not go through much of this sort of pain ( bloating sharp pain, dull cancer pain, ulcer pain), I begin to know more about how people who had pain suffered. It is again for my benefit that I will be more sympathetic towards those who are suffering.

Then after talking with God for a while, I had a song given to me. This song was a familiar one that I had heard before, however, I did not remember the verse, it was at the middle of night and I cannot wake up Moses to find out. This songs had stayed with me all through the night, repeating again and again to me. Until in the morning, when I asked Moses about it and as I read the verse, tears keep flowing down my cheek, I don’t know how to thank GOD enough for HIS encouragement. GOD GAVE ME ANOTHER KISS during the night.

Here it is, the song that GOd gave me last night. It had encouraged me so much and I hope it will also encourage you too.

Prayer item:
Hope that God can increase my pain threshold so that I can withstand it without taking more pain killer.
Or God can continue to give me strength to endure it.

Will be moving into Shannon Oaks this weekend. Enoch is coming over on THursday and hopefully by next week, all moving is done and will be seeing the oncologist next Wednesday. Will update all of you then.

Rejoice in the Lord by Ron Hamilton

God never moves without purpose or plan.
When trying His servant and molding a man.
Give thanks to the LORD, though your testing seems long.
In darkness, He giveth a song.

O REJOICE IN THE LORD!
He makes no mistake.
He knoweth the end of each path that I take!
For when I am tried and purified,
I shall come forth as gold.

I could not see through the shadows ahead,
So I looked at the cross of my Saviour instead.
I bowed to the will of the Master that day,
Then peace came, and tears fled away!

Now I can see testing comes from above,
God strengthens His children, and purges in love.
My Father knows best, and I trust in His care;
Through purging, more fruit I will bear.
